WILD HONEY, with Priscilla Dean. — Boys, it seems good to see a crowd come out, and this picture got them the first time in five months.

I gave away 10 gallons of honey the first night and a Priscilla Dean hat the second night. You can't go wrong on this picture. Book it. Boys, and do as I did, make some money. — G. H.
